Vista - Monitor 22 " set at 1600 x1200 Res.

**Bud** · 08-14-2009

How can I get the words to be larger? Every thing is so small. If I change the Res of the Screen, the Headers are very large but the words in the window are small.

They think everyone is a Rocket Scientist and have cut their teeth on a puter. Instructions suck

Hello Bud,

You can see if adjusting the DPI settings to a slightly larger DPI size may help.

OR

You might see if adjusting the Font Size (higher number) settings for items in Advanced Appearance may help.

Hope this helps,
Shawn

Thanks Shawn. I did get the Res. set the way I can use it.

Have not done anything with advanced appearance. Right now I am happy with the view on the monitor.

While I have you, maybe you can help me with another problem? Sometimes the bottom of the monitor pulls up around 2" and the Avatars on the left of the screen move all over even though I place them in a single line they change positions.

Thanks for your help
